About Me

Dr. Derek Wayman has been living and practicing in Devils Lake since 2006. He has found his purpose and interest in practicing obstetrics and taking care of children and young families. Dr. Wayman does high risk obstetrics including taking care of high risk pregnancies, performing cesarean sections, doing difficult deliveries and other procedures needed for obstetrical patients. He enjoys being involved in care of newborns, babies discharged from the NICU, and children as they grow. Procedures Dr. Wayman does in the clinic include: colposcopy, LEEP procedure, IUD insertion and removal, laceration repair, removal of skin lesions, nail removal, endometrial biopsy and circumcision. Outside of work, Dr. Wayman loves to spend time outdoors with his 3 children.

Philosophy of Medicine

"I went into medicine to help as many people as I can and to make a difference in their life. I treat every patient as if they are a close family member and involve them in making decisions in their healthcare. I love my job and enjoy taking care of young families with emphasis in family medicine with obstetrics and pediatrics."
